Explanation of the Book of Prayer-07

The Shaykh :"And from 'Amir ibn Rabi'ah (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:

I saw Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) praying while mounted on his riding animal facing whatever direction it faced

رأيت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم يصلي على راحلته حيث توجهت به

Bulugh al-Maram 2:76

. Agreed upon by al-Bukhari and Muslim. Al-Bukhari added:

Making gestures with his head and he did not do that (pray while mounted) with obligatory prayers.

يومئ برأسه ولم يكن يصنعه في المكتوبة

Bulugh al-Maram 2:77

" This hadith is where 'Amir says: to the end. The seeing here is seeing with the eye, not seeing with the heart. And his saying: means: his mount. It is possible that it was a donkey and it is possible that it was a camel. is a temporal adverb, but here it is for time. Yes, here it is for place. means to whatever place it faced. And al-Bukhari added: meaning during the bowing and prostration. It did not specify how the indication is done, but the Shari'ah, through other hadiths, clarified that he makes the prostration lower than the bowing, because this is the reality: that in prostration a person falls to the ground, and in bowing he is on his knees. means: he prays on the mount. means: in the obligatory prayer.
